TJ I'm sorry you're still struggling, I truly hope you're past the worst of it. How in the world is E turning 5?!?! Oh my gosh that happened so fast!
I am good. I had my FET on Friday, beta is Sunday. H is frustrating me with his poop issues. I think part of it is due to not being able to get it all out so I'm searching for ways to help that. I'm hearing miralax isn't so good for kids. I've heard a little about fiber gummies so that's my next avenue to look into. G turned 2 a couple of weeks ago and I'm thinking he needs to be evaluated for speech. He's finally picking up new words, but he won't use them unless I ask him to repeat, for the most part.

I'm here! ::waves hi::
It is busy season here for me. My kids are unraveling a bit, especially J. She had a nightmare last night that woke her up at 2:30 and she was up for the day. Thankfully, she took a nap, but I am exhausted.
J starts Pre K in two weeks. Yikes! She disliked preschool (at a different place) last year, so we will see how this goes. It is only three mornings a week, so I'm hoping that is a good balance between home with me and school.
G is the sweetest guy! Super self-entertaining at 20mo. I'm looking forward to spending more 1:1 time with him. His sister is so demanding and he is so chill, that he seems to get the leftovers on time and attention.
I have to say that I really miss you guys. It feels like graduation or something. Many of the old faces had slowly moved on, but it is weird that it is suddenly crickets. I haven't moved over and I don't think that I will. If anyone wants to be friends on FB, shoot me a PM.
Hi mrsamyd!! DS1 has always loved his daycare but he's really loving the small doses of their pre-k class he's gotten this summer. He learns so many new things and can't wait to tell us. Hopefully that's the same experience for y'all!
TJ, sorry you are struggling. big hugs mnj05, did you get the beta results? good luck!! mrsamyd, DD is the same, she is very spirited and needs almost constant attention. The baby is so calm I feel like he doesn't get enough. It seems backwards to me.
J turns 5 in a few weeks and starts kindergarten soon after. I was hesitant to enroll her because she will be so young, but she is so ready. She is really bored at pre school right now.
M is 10 months and can stand and is walking holding on to things. He is such a sweet and calm baby. I am getting sad that he won't be a baby much longer and trying to enjoy all the moments while we can.
I didn't check in super often, but I am sad almost everyone left. The new place only has a few people I recognize on SAIF. Guessing everyone went to FB or is off boards. There are people I think about and hope they are doing well.

mg0202 I had my beta this morning, not expecting a call until tomorrow. I'm sad everyone left too and isn't very active at the new place. So many of us from TB days didn't check in too often as it was.

TJ I'm sorry you are struggling. I am right there with you. It's hard to parent when you don't want to get out of bed in the morning. I wish I had some good advice, but big hugs. I'm here if you ever want to talk.
mnj05 did you get your beta back? Fx for good news!
I check in here every couple of days. I'm also sad that everyone has gone their separate ways. This board has been such an important part of my life for so long. I miss my girls!
Afm, DS1 is almost 3.5, and we are really struggling with him right now. Everything is "no," and we can't seem to find an effective punishment for him. DH has been traveling a lot lately, so that's not helping. I am so ready for school to start in three weeks!
DS2 is 10.5 months already. He's been waking for over a month and is in to everything. I'm planning on weaning as soon as he turns a year so I can go back on some medicines. He's a boob monster, so it's going to be tough. I just bought the outfit for his cake smash pictures, and I can't believe my last baby is almost a toddler.

karabear4409 I'm sorry you're struggling. Effective punishments are hard to come by in our experience as well.
My beta came back yesterday at 8. The on call nurse called me and she's not optimistic but said they consider that to be pregnant. I'll have a repeat tomorrow.
Does anyone check here much anymore? How's everyone doing?
Hi there. How are you doing so? Well, just logged in after a few weeks. So, yeah! having an IVF too in upcoming June at a center in Kiev, Ukraine. What's with you? What's update in your case? I hope the good news is near xx

Hey. So glad you asked. Doing great. Thank you. Just a little busy and anxious these days. I'm in the middle of my surrogacy program. Things are going well at the moment. But its gonna be a while. So yeah. Need lots of prayers.
My life update is all over the place. Honestly. It is such a weird thing. Life is. I must say that we for sure did not expect to become IPs so fast. But our surrogate is pregnant. She had her test done a week or so ago. Now we are waiting for the scheduled 6 weeks scan. We have already sent her our congratulations. when we were in Kiev to meet her we exchanged contacts. So now we can send her some cute messages over email. She responded using broken English. haha. But it was cute. She is Ukrainian. We have chosen to sign with a Ukrainian agency. It is called World Center of Baby. And it is located in Kiev. Thank god. Kiev is the capital, so it is easier for foreigners like us to navigate there. And it is not that hard at all. Like, we were really scared of this new thing. But eventually got used to it. There are plenty of people who speak English. We were able to use uber there. And the drivers were really charming and pleasant to talk to. It was a woman, she was very talkative despite her poor English. But we managed to understand each other nonetheless. Overall, we did not have any issues with understanding our dr. Our manager is also our interpreter. She helped us throughout our stay in Kiev.
